Projet

The European Commission thorough the Erasmus+ programme aims to develop the quality & benefits of transnational work-based learning (TWBL) across Europe & encourage greater numbers to take part. The idea for ShowValA comes from research & the observation that the learning & achievements of those who undertake a period of TWBL are often not recognised & do not always contribute to any potential certification. Furthermore, learning & achievements are frequently not effectively showcased by candidates when looking to gain entry to the employment market. This can discourage trainees from taking part in this type of experience.

Le programme Erasmus+ de la Commission européenne vise à développer la qualité et les avantages de l’apprentissage transnational par le travail en Europe et à encourager un plus grand nombre de personnes à y participer. L’idée de ShowValA vient de la recherche et de l’observation que l’apprentissage et les réalisations de ceux qui entreprennent une période de TWBL ne sont souvent pas reconnus et ne contribuent pas toujours à une certification potentielle. De plus, il arrive souvent que les apprentissages et les réalisations ne soient pas mis en valeur efficacement par les candidats lorsqu’ils cherchent à entrer sur le marché de l’emploi. Cela peut décourager les stagiaires de participer à ce type d’expérience.

Il existe donc un fossé entre les besoins des stagiaires, le niveau d’adoption actuel des outils et méthodes de l’UE et la situation actuelle en ce qui concerne la mise en valeur et la valorisation de l’apprentissage formel/non formel et des acquis. 

Le projet ShowValA rassemble 7 partenaires de 5 Etats membres de l’UE et vise à combler cette lacune en produisant un guide, un processus et des outils conviviaux et adaptables pour les établissements d’enseignement et les organisateurs de mobilité sur la façon d’intégrer pleinement une période de formation professionnelle et non formelle dans un programme pédagogique professionnel et d’évaluer les acquis de l’apprentissage formel et informel, menant à une reconnaissance des acquis de l’apprentissage et leur contribution à l’évaluation globale et la certification du cours en s’inspirant, le cas échéant, des principes et supports ECVET. Le guide et le processus seront compatibles et compléteront le matériel déjà existant développé et promu par l’UE, tel que le CV Europass et le passeport européen des compétences.

Il sera relié à une application smartphone/tablette multiformat qui permettra aux stagiaires de collecter, sauvegarder et organiser au jour le jour les preuves de leurs réalisations pendant leur TWBL. Il s’intégrera très bien dans leurs habitudes de vie actuelles car les jeunes ont tendance à gérer une part importante de leurs activités sur leurs Smartphones. Contrairement à un agenda traditionnel, l’interface sera structurée en fonction d’objectifs d’apprentissage convenus, d’unités de résultats d’apprentissage et de compétences/compétences. Il sera lié au cadre européen transversal des compétences (AEFA). Les informations stockées seront également téléchargées dans une base de données ou une plate-forme de gestion de la mobilité.

Un guide à l’intention des stagiaires sera également élaboré en cinq langues avec une méthodologie innovante pour la préparation en ligne avant le départ des stagiaires à utiliser l’application smartphone pour enregistrer et organiser leur apprentissage et leurs réalisations pendant le stage et la post-mobilité, un programme structuré et en ligne de valorisation par activités sur la manière de relier leur apprentissage pendant le stage au CV Europass, au passeport de compétences Europass et pour présenter au mieux leurs réalisations.

Cinq études pilotes auront lieu, une dans chacun des pays des partenaires du projet, afin de faciliter la mise à l’essai des Guides, Processus, Outils, Modules et Application pour Smartphone ShowValA à travers un apprentissage transnational de 3-42 semaines en entreprise. Cela impliquera au moins 50 stagiaires et 45 entreprises d’accueil. Certains de ces placements impliqueront des jeunes qui ne participeraient généralement pas à la mobilité transnationale, y compris ceux issus de milieux socio-économiques défavorisés.

Ces ressources seront open-source, consultables et téléchargeables via la plateforme web ShowValA et disponibles dans les 5 langues du projet. Ils peuvent être adaptés en fonction des besoins de groupes cibles spécifiques.  Ils permettront aux écoles, aux universités, aux établissements de formation et aux prestataires de services de mobilité de récompenser les stagiaires pour la qualité de l’apprentissage par le travail. Les résultats de ShowValA développeront donc des moyens innovants pour rendre la reconnaissance de l’apprentissage formel et non formel acquis par les stagiaires durant le TWBL accessible aux plus petites institutions en fournissant un moyen de collecter et de présenter des preuves claires de l’apprentissage tout en renforçant les liens entre ECVET, Europass et le passeport européen des compétences.

La promotion de l’apprentissage par le travail se fera donc à trois niveaux. Premièrement, le nombre d’établissements de formation qui récompensent les stagiaires pour leur apprentissage et leurs réalisations dans le cadre d’un placement professionnel transnational. Deuxièmement, sur le nombre de stagiaires qui entreprennent une période de formation TWBL. Troisièmement, cette augmentation de la participation et de la reconnaissance des acquis améliorera la pertinence de l’offre d’apprentissage sur le marché du travail.

Le projet ShowValA permettra d’accroître l’impact des stages transnationaux pour le stagiaire, ce qui apportera une valeur ajoutée au CV et améliorera ainsi l’employabilité en aidant à reconnaître les compétences qui ont été développées et qui sont requises par les entreprises. Cela peut à son tour contribuer à améliorer la qualité de la main-d’œuvre et à promouvoir le développement économique au sein de l’Union européenne.

Pour reprendre les mots du scientifique Thomas Edison : ” Il y a un moyen de mieux le faire….Trouvez-le ! C’est ce que nous espérons réaliser grâce au projet ShowValA.
